I was just watching a youtube video (NBA Stories: Toronto Raptors) and the narrator mentioned how in '06 - '07 season, when we had 47 wins and the biggest turn around in the NBA, we had nine (9) new players.

Now, usually I'm not that type of a person who believes in these kinds of (superstitious) things, but it got me thinking about Colangelo (Raptors) and a connection to number 9. I believe he mentioned it in one of his interviews how he has had great success with the number (regarding the drafts).

- B.C. drafted Shaw Marion at #9
- He also drafted Amare Stoudemire at #9
- This year, we added 9 new players to our roster
- Hedo is entering his 9th year in the NBA
- DeRozan... you get the point
- B.C fired Sam Mitchell after the Raptors lost their 9th game of the ('08-'09) season. By thirtyyy niiinneeeee pointss (iRaptor)
- Kobe's 81pt game against us. 8+1= 9
- Hedo was born March 19th, 1979
- If you replace CHRIS Bosh the letters with numbers, matching them with a phone keypad. You get..... 24747 2674. Subtract and add those bad boys. 2-4+7-4+7-2+6-7+4 = 9 (iRaptor)
- Bosh was 9th in league scoring (Jackson Filth)
- Raptors have completed 14 seasons in the NBA, out of that 14 they have made 5 play off appearances. 14 - 5 = 9 (iRaptor)
- In the 08-09 season the Raptors were 9th in the NBA in attendance (007nites)

Honorable mentions:

- Apparently, I loose as I was fooled by a conspiracy of numbers. DAmn you #9. (Formless)
- High possibility of Raps loosing their next 9 games then turning it around and winning the rest (AznRayD)
- Gurk's cock is 9'' long (SJ and Barracuda)
- Correction: Gurk's cock is 9' long (Gurk)
- Gurk's business is apparently booming* thus not being able to provide Barracuda with his undivided attention leaving her no other options but to move on with her life (Gurk/Barracuda)
- This thread is 9 days late. Should've been done on 9/9/09. (Dan38)
- Jackson Filth's math skills are questionable at best: 15-9=4 ?? (Jackson Filth)
- This #9 stuff is old news (Admiral)
- We're in the 2009th year (Boshinator_)
- Colangelo has been to the tanning beds 9 times in September (Acie)
- Chris Bosh has made 9 youtube videos (Acie)
- Jose has sprained his hamstring 9 times (Acie)

If you can think of anything else, please feel free to add it to the list.

I know, I know...this offseason has been Waaay too long, but I just can't wait for the '09-'10 season to begin.

note:This is meant only as a fun and somewhat mentally stimulating/challenging activity which should have some relevance to our team.
